Content-based browsing of data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM)

Abstract

Through content based browsing, the TSDIS Orbit Viewer can help scientists decide which files to order from the TRMM archive. The Orbit Viewer's Mission Index can locate large-scale rain events in six terabytes of data. The Orbit Viewer's TRMM Tracker can locate coincidences between the TRMM orbit and a user-defined surface track.
